Tomytec - New Releases

[DenshaTen]

As a car guy there's some good stuff in there for me

[Cat]

I was a dutiful wife and did show the first one to Roxanne; who, as expected, immediately asked if we could get it.
 
Then I showed her the price and she retracted the request, also as expected.

Car carriers are back!

I thought MD03 looked like a train show in that poster — https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/11001799

Marked safe from buying that one for our transportation systems of Ibaraki models.  It's the new model UD Quon truck not the first generation (2004—2017)

Bugger to the seven hells, more 2-axle railcars/locos. I haven't even started adding mechs to the ones I already have!

It is. It's depicts Tomixs sectional boards from their how-to-model booklets.

If Tomytec ever releases the dollhouse interior pieces as separate parts sets, then presumably the prices will be more affordable without the full assembly cost that goes into the current kits.

[cteno4]

Unfortunately there is little interior doll house stuff out there, few etched chairs and ysk desks and some shelves and such on shapways. There is a bunch of 1/144 cast metal bits, mainly furniture, but not great on being super scale.

Quite a lot of stuff this month. A lot of buses. Another doll house. Also worth noting that there is more Tomytec stuff in Tomix announcement about Romancing SaGa collab.

Stoked for the new Kobe Railway sets, but disappointed they were not announced by Popondetta.

"Bus Collection Plus" with "kneeling and steering functions".  Y4400 at full retail, Y3600 if you pre-order. Ouch.

 

https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/11139550

 

A similar bus for half that price, minus the "Plus".

[cteno4]

Yes ouch, just for a few little axle parts and assembly. Hobby knife and pliers could probably get you turning wheels or a tilt.

A new level of price insanity has been achieved with "The Bus Collection Vol. 34". Y34,320! at full price for a set of 12.

 

Vol. 33 was Y23760 released in June of last year. That's more than a 40% price bump in one year.

Ouch! Seems to be following other vehicle prices.

why it's always happening when i open links from this website.... always redirected to the main page.....

anyone had the same thing?

 

Edit as I'm in japan it will redirect me to the japanese website somehow....

Have to use a VPN to access it

Yes many japanese sites redirect like this when detecting an in country ip address. I vaguely remember some trick discussed here other than vpn for trying to force hs pages loads, but it was a long time back and may not be useful anymore. Ironically you can access the japanese hs pages from outside japan by just zapping the /eng in the url. Some japanese sites redirect all out of japan requests to a certain page and dont allow browsing of the japanese site.
